How Fear, Not Fact, Informs the Gun Rights Debate

I find this a great addition to go along with this video I’ve used numerous times previously:

Then again, most of these people who fall into the irrational panic state don’t seem to understand the benefit of discussion occurring while you’re calm and rational. Their coping mechanism for tragedy is to “Do Something,” even if that something actually causes more people to die they feel better because the did something.

I did see a video this weekend and I think I’m going to have to get together with some friends and script out a response.

Barron is the owner, editor, and principal author at The Minuteman, a competitive shooter, and staff member for Boomershoot. Even in his free time he’s merging his love and knowledge of computers and technology with his love of firearms.

He has a BS in electrical engineering from Washington State University. Immediately after college he went into work on embedded software and hardware for use in critical infrastructure. This included cryptographic communications equipment as well as command and control devices that were using that communications equipment. Since then he’s worked on just about everything ranging from toys, phones, other critical infrastructure, and even desktop applications. Doing everything from hardware system design, to software architecture, to actually writing software that makes your athletic band do its thing.

It’s out of the Peoples Republik of Californiastan so if you live down there you might very well go there every day.

In which case accept my sincere and humble apologies. My only request is to keep the cancer within your border until it has been eradicated. I will do what I can to help kill the cancer from the outside.

San Jose, it all looks the same… But once you get out of the cancer-ward that are the CA Metro areas where the looters and Liberals live, the rest of the state is worth rescuing. Except for Facebook – that can be excised.
